I’ve settled on Fast Draw. You get to use exactly one widget, but it’s lightweight and lets me launch apps.
I’m also on Mastodon

While I can fully understand his pain, I can’t quite follow how adding a paid subscription model will make his life easier (except financially).
Before, he had to deal with entitled asshats, and now he’ll have to deal with asshats feeling even more entitled, because they paid for it.
I’ve been manually reencoding to h265 l, and while the space savings are significant, the pain is also. Especially if you mess up the audio or subs!
Will definitely look into that!
It’s easy for you and me. But imagine you’re Joe Everyman. First off, you need to know about F-Droid and where to download it. Then confirm that the browser can install software. And this is where I would imagine many users second-guessing if everything’s legit. And after it’s installed, you’ve got two separate app-stores to deal with. You need to know what you can install where.
If I extrapolate from my mother-in-law, who still can’t wrap her head around the concept of an app-store, let alone alternative browsers, that’s just too much hassle for most people.
As an OSS advocate, I fully agree. Sadly, OSS alternatives have to compete with easily accessible, slick and well-integrated products that are aggressively positioned. Just imagine all the steps you need to go through, just to install Fennec from F-Droid.
Took me a bit to get into Star Trek: Lower Decks but I recommend it to any star Trek fan!
All of that and Custom DNS? Sounds like a pet project with scope issues.
